AMG Review of McKenna
Scott Yanow
All Music GuideDave McKenna's fourth and final Chiaroscuro LP (and his second set of unaccompanied piano solos for the label) features him in top form less than two years before he began recording for Concord. McKenna digs into ten of his favorite standards, including familiar material such as "Avalon," "How High the Moon," "Blue Skies" and "What Is This Thing Called Love." He comes up with fresh variations on these numbers and swings up a storm. Often using heated basslines and subtle wit, Dave McKenna puts on a memorable recital.
